No question great design - 5 out of 5 rating for sure. Support is a 4, pretty good. Where they fall down is on ruggedness. There may be improvements in the 2009 versions but the main problem with my 2008 set is many of the parts are made with plastics. There is 52 lb maximum of weight and thats alot to ask to support of some of the types of plastics used to construct this product. The minor flaw in my view is the choice of materials for this product. For example, the spindles that pick up and hold each plate in place are made of a thin hard but brittle plastic. If you do a set on a bench, get exhausted and drop these weights by more then a inch or 2 on the floor, these plastic spindles have a tendency to break.
Pros: Compact, Durable, Easy To Use, Multifunctional, Targets Muscles

I bought these sight unseen... I had tried most of the other brands and decided to trust the reviews. These are the best adjustable dumbbells out there right now! Very easy to use and select different weight. The selector works smoothly and locks in securely. The only 'con' is the size. They ARE a bit long and wide, but that is to be expected because they can adjust up to 52 pounds.
Pros: Durable, Easy To Use, Multifunctional
Cons: A Bit Long And Wide
I would recommend this to a friend!
